Volume 1 Campus Chapter 41 Dawn
It didn't take long for everyone to run to the front of the school building, but they were already tired and panting, they hardly had rested all night, and now their physical strength was almost at the limit. So they didn't rush towards the school gate, but hid behind the nearby bushes, recovering their strength while observing the situation at the school gate.
There were more than a dozen zombies wandering around the door, there were students and soldiers, Liu Shaoqing counted them, there were 13 in total, and 3 of them were soldiers. Liu Shaoqing looked at the people and weapons here again, there were four people who could fight, three blunt weapons, two sharp weapons, and two of the soldiers and zombies were still wearing helmets, so they could only use sharp weapons to kill them.
After thinking about the countermeasures, Liu Shaoqing said to the people around him:
"Listen to me, there are 13 zombies at the school gate now, although the number is a bit large, but we can handle it. What's more troublesome is that there are two zombies with helmets, and they can't be dealt with with blunt weapons, so, Chen Tao, you and Wang Jiale's weapons are exchanged. ”
Although Wang Jiale didn't dare to deal with zombies, he still took a crowbar to defend himself. After Chen Tao and Wang Jiale exchanged weapons, Liu Shaoqing continued:
"Those two soldiers will be handed over to you and Ye Yuyao. Wait a minute, I'll take the lead, but it will take a little time for our weapons to be pulled out after we take them out, and then you guys will follow up and take out the next batch. We just came in batches, and they were loosely placed, and we could do it. ”
"What you should pay special attention to is the guys lying on the ground," Liu Shaoqing pointed to the corpses lying on the ground at the school gate, "God knows if they will get up, especially you, Wang Jiale, you must pay attention." ”
Wang Jiale nodded as if pounding garlic, his eyes fixed on the corpse on the ground.
"After cleaning up the zombies nearby, we got into the car, and everyone went to the back except for Chen Tao."
"I need someone to help me keep an eye on the road, and if there's a map, I've got to look at it." At this time, Chen Tao suddenly interjected.
"Well......" Liu Shaoqing thought about it, it really made sense, "Then ......"
Without waiting for Liu Shaoqing's arrangement, Chen Tao mustered up the courage and asked first:
"Yu Yao, can you help me?"
This was the first time he had called Ye Yuyao's name, and he had shouted it so intimately, to be honest, he was a little nervous, but Ye Yuyao didn't feel anything, just nodded. Liu Shaoqing was a little dissatisfied with Chen Tao's move, but he couldn't say anything, after all, only Chen Tao could drive, and it was up to him to say anything.
"Huh......" Liu Shaoqing took a deep breath, which was the end of this rest time, "Since it is arranged, let's go." ”
"That ......" At this time, Wang Jiale suddenly spoke, "Can I ...... I'll wait here for you to take care of it......"
Hearing this, Liu Shaoqing's eyebrows furrowed, he didn't let you kill the zombies, but he still wanted to wait here for others to help you clear the road before going over? Ye Yuyao didn't say anything to a girl, and even joined their attacking team, but you, a big man with such a huge physique, are cowering here?
"It doesn't matter if you want to stay here, as long as you're alive when we're done." Liu Shaoqing glanced at the direction they came from, and said this, his tone was a little cold.
Wang Jiale followed his gaze, and the crowd of black oppressors was walking towards this side, and his faltering steps were not normal human beings no matter how he looked at them.
"Anything else? It's okay and we'll go. ”
At this time, Liu Shaoqing's voice came from the side again, Wang Jiale swallowed his saliva and didn't dare to say anything more.
After arranging everything, Liu Shaoqing raised his courage and rushed out in one breath, seeing his move, people's hearts seemed to be infected, and they rushed out of the bushes with him.
The zombie, which was wandering aimlessly, heard a "click" running sound, it slowly turned its head, and a magnifying figure was reflected in its gray-white eyeballs, and then, the fire axe slammed into its head, stepping on its corpse with tension, shaking the axe stuck in its head. At this time, another zombie nearby noticed the tension, but before it could get closer, Liu Shaoqing slapped it to the ground with a shovel, and then stuck the shovel into the back of its head. And Zhang Li also pulled out the axe and slashed at the next zombie. Seeing that the two opened up the situation, Ye Yuyao and Chen Tao also joined the battle, and only Wang Jiale cowered behind them.
It didn't take long for the four of them to kill eight zombies one after another. And at this time, the two soldier zombies wearing helmets entered their field of vision.
"As we said okay, I'll leave the two to you, and we'll take care of the rest!" Liu Shaoqing shouted at Ye Yuyao and Chen Tao.
The two nodded, and then Liu Shaoqing and Zhang Zhang stepped forward and knocked over the zombies on both sides of the soldiers' zombies, and the two of them rushed forward at this time. Chen Tao aimed at the eye socket of the soldier zombie, and then stabbed it with a stick, while Ye Yuyao grabbed the shoulder of the soldier zombie and pushed it onto the military card, taking advantage of the fact that it was pressed on the car and could not move, Ye Yuyao easily pierced its eyes with the dagger in his hand.
"Ahem, aa
Ye Yuyao just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect a howl to suddenly sound from the soles of his feet, and then a pale hand grabbed her calf, and a chilling coldness came from her calf.
Damn it!
Ye Yuyao scolded secretly, but her dagger was still stuck in the eyes of the soldier zombies, she used too much force just now, and she couldn't pull it out for a while.
Seeing that the zombie was about to bite down, Ye Yuyao simply left the dagger in the eyes of the soldier zombie, and then pushed the corpse of the soldier zombie onto the body of the zombie below him, which was regarded as blocking the attack of a zombie. But even if the head was slammed by the corpse, the zombies still didn't let go, after all, they had long forgotten what pain was.
And the zombie pulled violently, and dragged Ye Yuyao to the ground, which knocked Ye Yuyao to pieces. By the time Ye Yuyao held up her upper body again, the zombie had already lifted her calves and opened her bloody mouth.
"you pony!"
As soon as Ye Yuyao wanted to kick the zombie's head, a shout came from in front of him, and then a crowbar stabbed into the zombie's skull. Chen Tao held the crowbar that had sunk into the zombie's head, dragged its corpse off Ye Yuyao's body, and then pulled out the crowbar, and at the same time brought out some stinky blood and brains.
"Are you alright?"
Chen Tao stretched out his hand to Ye Yuyao, who was panting on the ground, and Ye Yuyao noticed that her breathing was so rapid, even after so much time and so many things, being caught by zombies still made her tremble. She grabbed Chen Tao's hand, stood up from the ground, and thanked her.
"Damn it, I know."
At this time, other people also rushed over, Liu Shaoqing looked at the corpse on the ground, and scolded in annoyance.
"We're going to move faster." Chen Tao glanced at the zombies that were approaching in the distance and said.
"Okay, you two go to the driver's seat, and the others follow me to the back."
People did as Liu Shaoqing said, Ye Yuyao bypassed the front of the car, opened the car door from the other side and got in, and Chen Tao also entered the driver's seat.
"Yu Yao, can you help me shine the light?" Chen Tao asked while observing the entire driver's seat.
"Hmm." Ye Yuyao opened his backpack, took out the flashlight he brought out of the warehouse, and shone the light on Chen Tao's hand, and Chen Tao fumbled under the steering wheel with the light of the flashlight.
"Chen Tao! How's it going over there! ”
Liu Shaoqing's voice came from the window behind Ye Yuyao, and it seemed that they had also entered the back compartment.
"I need some time, I haven't touched a car like this for a female horse."
"And how long will it take you? There are more and more zombies out there! ”
Hearing Liu Shaoqing's words, Ye Yuyao looked out the window, at this time, there were zombies everywhere outside, no matter which way they looked, there were at least dozens of them densely, and wails came from all directions, surrounding them. Ye Yuyao hurriedly closed the window of the car and blocked the terrible scream, which made her feel better.
"I don't know...... But it shouldn't be long. ”
Chen Tao's uncertain guarantee made Liu Shaoqing's heart fall to the bottom, and he began to regret his decision to run out, maybe it would be a better choice to stay in the warehouse.
"......" Liu Shaoqing looked at the zombies that were constantly gathering here, and scolded in a low voice, "Before the car can start, we will be surrounded." ”
"So what? As long as you can move, why don't you just run over it? The chassis is so high that they can't climb up. Zhang Li was dismissive of this.
Liu Shaoqing frowned, although zombies are dead people, but at least they are still people, and if they hit people with a car, they still hit so many people at once, it makes people's scalps tingle just thinking about it.
"It's a truck, but it's not a tank, there are so many zombies, if the tires slip, we're done." Liu Shaoqing thought about it and said.
"You know that's going to happen?" Seeing Liu Shaoqing so cautious, Zhang Zhang wanted to laugh a little.
"I don't know, but I don't want to try either."
"So what do you say you should do? What's the use of just thinking about this and that? ”
"......" Liu Shaoqing was silent, he looked out of the car, although there were zombies nearby, their locations were scattered, but it might not be like this after a while. And among this group of zombies, there is a place that is vacant, probably because it is the direction of the road, and there are not many zombies on the road in the first place.
Maybe......
Liu Shaoqing touched the 92 pistol on his waist and looked at the gap again. The gap was shrinking, and there wasn't much time left for him to think about it.
Liu Shaoqing gritted his teeth, stood up violently, took out a 92 pistol, and then said to Ye Yuyao in the driver's seat:
"I'm going to lure those zombies away, and you'll pick me up across the road!"
"What......"
Before Ye Yuyao could figure out what he meant, Liu Shaoqing turned out of the back compartment, and it was too late for Ye Yuyao to stop him. And Zhang Zhang also looked at Liu Shaoqing's back with a shocked face, there were zombies outside, he actually went out like this?
Liu Shaoqing swore that he had never run so fast in his life, and rushed to the front of the corpse group in a few arrow steps, he didn't dare to look at the zombies nearby, and drilled into the gaps in the corpse group, and a few zombies close to him tried to catch him in vain, but before he could stretch out his hand, Liu Shaoqing ran far away. Immediately after, Liu Shaoqing climbed over the guardrail in the middle of the road like a parkour enthusiast, he had never tried to do this, but the desire to survive forced him to be very skillful.
After passing the guardrail, it was finally safer, Liu Shaoqing held his knees and took a few breaths, and then looked at the corpses behind the guardrail. His actions just now only attracted a few zombies, and most of them still moved towards the truck unwaveringly.
Sure enough, I still have to use that.
Liu Shaoqing was a little helpless, but still raised his pistol. The light around him was a little dim, but he was still able to aim, and he could see that the horizon in the distance had turned a touch of fish belly white, and the originally dark sky had become slightly cooler, and the sky was about to dawn.
Liu Shaoqing took a deep breath, controlled his trembling hands, aimed at a zombie that was relatively close to him, and then prepared to meet the recoil of the pistol.
"Bang!"
The huge gunshot rang out, and it echoed in the nearby buildings for a long time, and Liu Shaoqing couldn't help but squint his eyes at the moment of shooting, and the muzzle flame from the gunpowder still made him feel scared. After that, he glanced at the zombie he was aiming at, and sure enough, he didn't hit it in the head, and the muzzle of the gun that was picked up due to the recoil caused the impact point to deviate from the direction he was aiming, knowing that he would aim at the zombie's neck. However, the shot worked, and the zombies stopped and turned around.
Liu Shaoqing was stunned at this moment, although as the president of the student union, it was not the first time that he was watched by dozens of people at the same time, but this time it was different, this time he was stared at tightly by a large group of dead people, and the godless gaze was more terrifying than any affectionate gaze. Under the gaze of this gaze, Liu Shaoqing even felt that he would be pounced on by these monsters in the next second, and every inch of flesh on his body would be torn and torn apart by them.
Next, the zombies moved, and staggered towards Liu Shaoqing, Liu Shaoqing wanted to run, but in fact, his legs were already weak. Even if he was holding a gun in his hand, but in the face of so many zombies, Liu Shaoqing suddenly felt that this gun was so useless, and the best way to use it might be to hit his head.
On the other side, seeing the zombies gradually leaving, the people in the truck breathed a sigh of relief, and Ye Yuyao's clenched fists that were so worried about Liu Shaoqing also let go. Then she looked at Chen Tao on the side, and Chen Tao also operated more steadily because of the pressure of the zombies.
Ye Yuyao wanted to know how Chen Tao's progress was, but if he asked again, it would only affect his operation, so he had to continue to obediently raise the flashlight. Even though she kept swapping hands for the flashlight, her shoulders began to ache, and it looked like they had been taking too much time.
At this time, the corpses hit the railing of the road, although they were blocked, but the railing of some years immediately began to deform and scream, and the zombies who were close at hand and kept howling at Liu Shaoqing made Liu Shaoqing's heart furious, but he told the others that he was waiting here, and he didn't dare to leave.
"Oh, oh, oh!"
Suddenly, a howl sounded behind him, and he hurriedly turned to look, and a large group of zombies appeared behind him at some point, crowded outside the railing of the service lane. Apparently he has been caught in the middle.
He didn't expect the gunfire to attract so many zombies, and he suddenly regretted why he did it, but at this time there was no other way out, he could only wait for the others to drive the car over.
If you can't wait......
He looked down at the Type 92 in his hand and swallowed.
"He looks like he's surrounded."
Cold, the tension in the back compartment said this, Ye Yuyao quickly looked at the middle of the road after hearing this, Liu Shaoqing stood there in a daze, both sides were full of corpse hands stretched out towards him, and even on the road, zombies had already appeared. It looked like he was in a very dangerous situation.
"Chen Tao!"
Ye Yuyao shouted at Chen Tao, and at this time, a burst of sparks erupted from the wire in Chen Tao's hand, and then, there was a roar from the hood in front of him.
"Got it!"
Chen Tao shouted excitedly, then pulled out from under the steering wheel, sat back in the driver's seat, and fastened his seat belt.
"Clutch...... Brake...... Gas pedal...... And the gear knob, damn it, it's a manual transmission. ”
Chen Tao said while familiarizing himself with the truck, and then sat down.
"Sit down, you're leaving!"
Hearing this, the two people in the back compartment hurriedly sat down next to them, and Ye Yuyao also put away the flashlight, and then fastened his seat belt.
After seeing that everyone was ready, Chen Tao looked in the rearview mirror and went out of the car, the process was a little bumpy, and it was estimated that the dead body on the ground was crushed.
After driving onto the road, Chen Tao shifted the gear handlebar, and then stepped on the accelerator, and the truck rushed out. The huge roar of the truck engine also attracted the zombies on the railing, and Liu Shaoqing's pressure suddenly decreased a lot.
But looking at the trucks that kept driving away, Liu Shaoqing suddenly became worried, and they ...... You won't abandon him, will you? After all, his neighborhood is full of zombies......
Thinking of this, Liu Shaoqing clenched the 92 type, if ...... If they do......
Just when Liu Shaoqing's expression gradually became gloomy, the truck in the distance made a sharp turn, and then rushed towards him, and then stopped next to him with a sudden brake, Chen Tao in the driver's seat rolled down the window and shouted at him:
"Come on!"
Liu Shaoqing's thoughts were pulled back by this sound, he quickly stuffed the gun into the waistband of his trousers, and then ran to the rear compartment in a few steps, and the two people in the rear compartment also hurriedly put down the baffle, Liu Shaoqing jumped up on the floor of the rear compartment, and before he could stand up, the car started, and the sudden acceleration made Liu Shaoqing stumble, he cursed in his heart, and found a place to sit in embarrassment.
"You're reckless." Zhang Zhang didn't know whether to praise or mock it, Liu Shaoqing laughed dryly and didn't say anything.
Although they successfully picked up Liu Shaoqing, there were a few zombies in front of them, obviously, they couldn't get around them, and no matter how they honked, they would definitely not get out of the way. Chen Tao was ruthless, stepped on the accelerator, and the truck rushed towards the zombies like a beast that had rushed out of the cage.
The zombies were getting closer and closer, but these creatures, who had lost their intelligence, had no idea of the danger that was coming, and just howled as usual, and even approached the whizzing truck. only heard a few "knocks" and "knocks", before Chen Tao and Ye Yuyao could see their appearances clearly, the zombies were knocked out, Ye Yuyao never knew that the human body could fly so high and fly so far, like a puppet thrown out by a naughty child. The zombies that were knocked out were lucky, and some of the zombies were directly run over by the truck, and the people in the back compartment were fortunate enough to see their "corpses", and their whole bodies were crushed into rough meat puree, and the people in the back compartment suddenly felt a tumbling stomach. But even after this, those zombies who were not pressed to the head still opened and closed their mouths without giving up.
The corpses of the zombies were getting farther and farther away from them, and the zombies who were knocked away were getting up again, dragging their broken bodies, and persevering to catch up with them, but obviously it was impossible. Ye Yuyao looked through the rearview mirror, looking at the corpses that were constantly moving away, and under the dawn sun, the campus that had lived for nearly a year had become hell in a few days. There had never been a time when she had left the school as she had been shocked, but anyway, they had managed to get out of that place.
But what happens after that?
Ye Yuyao looked at the road ahead, and his heart was confused.
"Gan, I'm running out of gas."
Chen Tao's scolding came from the side, Ye Yuyao looked at the fuel gauge, and the pointer had slipped to a dangerous place.
"Isn't there a gas station nearby?"
Liu Shaoqing's voice came from the back compartment, Chen Tao recalled, and then turned the front of the car in front of him, while praying that the fuel was enough to hold them to the gas station.
From time to time, there will be a zombie or two on both sides of the road, as well as a few scrapped vehicles, but fortunately, their school is in the suburbs, and the main road is also next to the school, and they have already driven out of that area.
Ye Yuyao looked out the window at the ruined city like ruins, she had walked this road countless times, but only this time she saw it was different from the past. Normally, she would doze off when she looked at it, but now, she couldn't fall asleep.
A crow flew outside the window, Ye Yuyao's eyes followed it, and met the sky as dead as the skin color of a corpse, and then saw his beautiful face reflected in the sky, but at this time it looked no different from those zombies. It is as if to say that both the living and the dead are now nothing but the walking dead.
The sun chasing the truck still rises as usual, but the world that belongs to humans has begun to wither.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's dawn.
The sunlight fell on Zhang Wenting's body through the window, but she couldn't feel a trace of warmth.
She looked at Wu Shaojie blankly, there was no expression on his face, it was quiet as if he was asleep, but it was too quiet, there was no breath at all.
Wu Shaojie is dead.
About an hour, or two hours ago, Zhang Wenting couldn't remember clearly, she had been by Wu Shaojie's side, kept watching him, and kept holding his hand, but I don't know when Wu Shaojie's hand lost its temperature, and his good-looking nose lost its breath. At first, Zhang Wenting could still hear the sound of breathing, and she was a little lucky, but later she realized that the breath was her own.
When she realized this, there was no sadness, no consternation, no fear, nothing in her heart.
She gently stroked Wu Shaojie's handsome face, slowly put his hand on his chest, and then stood up.
It's time for me to go to sleep too.
She turned around and saw the food left by Liu Shaoqing, as well as a knife next to the food.
I'm sorry.
She looked at the food, smiled apologetically, and picked up the knife.
"Ahem......"
!!!!
She turned her head violently and looked at Wu Shaojie incredulously, but Wu Shaojie's face was still calm.
Hallucinations......
She laughed self-deprecatingly, walked to Wu Shaojie's side, then rolled up her sleeves and put the blade on her wrist.
"Ahem......"
This time, Zhang Wenting was sure that she had heard correctly, and Wu Shaojie's head twitched.
"Shaojie......?"
Zhang Wenting couldn't believe her eyes, she hurried close to Wu Shaojie's head, and called Wu Shaojie's name softly, as if she was afraid that her voice was too loud and would scare his soul away.
As if hearing her call, Wu Shaojie slowly opened his eyes.
Zhang Wenting didn't believe in miracles, but now, miracles appeared in front of her, and at this moment, she was ecstatic.
"Less ......"
But when she looked into Wu Shaojie's eyes, she was stunned.
It was the same gray eyes as those monsters, those monsters called zombies.
"Ahem, a
Wu Shaojie bounced up his upper body violently, grabbed Zhang Wenting's neck, and then, as if he was about to dislocate his chin, opened his mouth wide and bit towards Zhang Wenting's snow-white neck.
"Huh?"
